This Year's Model Updates:

The most significant change for the 2007 Audi A4 family is the updating of the Cabriolet body style. In addition to adopting the refreshed styling and hardware already on the sedan and wagon, the Cabriolet features a new acoustic top that promises a quieter ride. Other updates this year include a revised "Symphony" audio system, which can now play MP3-encoded CDs, and some shuffling of features. The 2.0T gains a new four-spoke steering wheel but loses the option of having a driver seat/mirror memory feature or heated rear seats. The 3.2 gets a standard sunroof (excluding Cabriolet versions) and paddle-shifters for automatic transmission-equipped models. Finally, satellite radio choice is now limited to Sirius, and Audi's free maintenance program has been discontinued.

Pros:
  • High-quality cabin, agile handling, high crash-test scores, available in multiple body styles, all-wheel-drive availability.
Cons:
  • Tight rear seat, 2.0T a little light on low-end torque.

  • Love it! - 2007 Audi A4
    By -

    Sure, it burns a quart of oil every 3-4,000 miles, but you only have to change oil every 10,000 miles so youre still ahead. There is a lag with the turbo, but it really goes away when driving in "sport" mode, which I always do (VERY peppy, and still get 23mpg). Ive had one small mechanical bug (rear window with a mind of its own) but my dealer (Rusnak, Westlake Village, CA) has been exceptional to work with. Id love to trade it someday for an A5 cab, but at my age, they might end up burying me in this car!

  • Greatest Car Ive Owned - 2007 Audi A4
    By -

    Ive owned my A4 for about 1 year now and couldnt be happier. From the sporty ride, quick acceleration, incredible interior finish/comfort, wonderful Bose stereo, to the fact that I can fit four adults comfortably make this car a winner. I had driven several A4s before and liked the drive. I love it now. When I ride in a different car I miss the feeling of my Audi. Some people criticize the exhaust warble...thats a plus in my book. I have no idea what some people mean referring to seat discomfort. Im 62 and have driven across the US and felt great. Also, just yesterday I averaged 29-31 mpg on the highway at 75 mph. not too shabby.

  • Great car for enthusiasts only - 2007 Audi A4
    By -

    I bought this car knowing that maintenance might be an issue, and that it would need a lot of care. Luckily, I didnt buy it because it was known for reliability or even performance. I bought it because I love Audi, and Ive never regretted it. This car has the potential to become an amazing vehicle with some tweaks and some serious attention. If you want a car that you can drive and never have to think about then DONT buy this car. This car needs to be loved. If it is worry free driving youre after, then buy a Hyundai, Nissan, or Honda. This is for people who love tuning, and love cars.

  • My First Audi - 2007 Audi A4
    By -

    I was searching for something fun to drive since I spend so much time behind the wheel for my work. Looked at RX-8, BMW 3-series, Mustang, and Audi. My brother-in-law and his wife told me test drive one. Test drove an 07 A4 CVT 2.0T and fell in love. Gets good-great gas mileage given performance, good trunk space, great cabin layout, and long list of accessories. Have only had for awhile but I love to drive it. Small turbo lag in Drive, but put in Sport or Manual and it becomes virtually non-existent. Used to drive a Honda Civic and it doesnt even compare. I know Hondas are more reliable and require less maintenance, but just keep up with it and this car will take care of you.

  • 110,000 miles - 2007 Audi A4
    By -

    I have had a couple of smaller issues. Oil has been ok but as they car ages it uses more. 1 quart every 4-5K at 110K PCV console latch and poor leather trim with leather cracking twice. Tires last 50K or more 30MPG or more. Brakes - fronts replace at 93k orginal rear Turbo diverter valve went at 93K Cruise control brake switch at 85K Timing belt replaced at 105K All in all it has not been bad as nothing mechanical went until it had >85k coil packs replaced as part of recall. The car has done well for its class. Its a daily driver with economy, comfort, and style.

  • Love it -- BUT the Oil!!! - 2007 Audi A4
    By -

    Love this car. I bought it as a certified pre-owned - Ive had it about 1 1/2 years now. Love driving it BUT about every 1000-1200 miles the oil light goes on and I have to constantly put oil in. I have never heard of such a thing before. AUDI tells me that is normal for this type of "high performance" vehicle. I think NOT -- - I still love the car but I dont think I would have bought it if I knew this.

  • HELP!!!!!!!!!...."TICKING" NOISE - IT IS GOING TO BLOW UP????? - 2007 Audi A4
    By -

    I purchased my 2007 Audi A4 Convertible Quattro about a month ago, with only 39,000 miles on it. It is a great car, but with one exception, it "TICKS" after I power the car off. What Ive noticed is that it when I drive a short distance, its a low faint ticking noise, and when I drive a long/extended period it is a high/loud ticking noise when I power off. Yes, Ive been told that it is "Normal", but it is such a distraction from the beauty of the car, when the attention its receiving is due to the "ticking" noise it makes. Is anyone else experiencing this problem, and is there a fix for it. Please advise, as I feel that I am driving a "TICKING TIME BOMB".....

  • Loved this car, until I realized it has a serious oil consumption problem which Audi has been dismissing for 2 years. - 2007 Audi A4
    By -

    Loved this car, enough that I purchased it off the lease after 3 years. Biggest mistake ever. I have been bringing it for oil consumption problems since Oct 2009 and been more than casually dismissed after wasting a lot of time and worry. Past 3 times I have burned more than a quart of oil after driving only 600-700 miles. Audi keeps giving me the run around (Fletcher Jones Audi Chicago has consistently given me the worst customer service of my life). They keep making me bring it back for oil consumption tests which have been repeatedly performed and telling me there is nothing wrong with it. I am at a loss and have written to Better Business Bureau and the Audi USA customer service.

  • Feeling a bit worried ... - 2007 Audi A4
    By -

    Ok, here is the scoop - I love my 2007 Audi A4 Quatrrrrro ... fun to drive, great fuel economy and a definite head turner ... I bought is used with 50K miles August of 2010 - and I just got my check engine light January 2011. Initial symptoms were engine misfire (temp outside was -11 F ccooooold) ... so I took it to the dealer I bought it from and they had to replace some valve because of fault $257 later, it was deemed OK ... this happened after putting 10K miles ... and I was hoping to expect such events after 40K or so ... This is why I am a bit worried - what is going to go wrong again?

  • Gave back to dealer 2 mos before lease end. - 2007 Audi A4
    By -

    Tonight Im reviewing 6 of my latest car purchases. Audi is getting the lowest marks. My car burned a Quart of oil every 3000 mi. Oil light would come on before it was time to get oil change. Evry time. Loved car before this happened. Recommended A4 cabby to a friend. His did the same thing. When in parking lots examine the carbon buildup on A4 tailpipes.having blown the engine on my previous 911 I was very sensitive to oil lights. I complained repeatedly to Audi who insisted that kind of oil loss was within specs. Seems like poor engineering. I always felt like a chump after speaking with service. I was so annoyed that I gave it back early to clear a space for a new BMW. Cont.
